Family Recipe stems from memories of times spent with my mom in the kitchen. As a child, I watched her make biscuits the way her mother taught her to make them. Even though I never met my grandmother, I feel a spiritual connection with her in the images in this series. I deliberately focus on the hands and the ingredients. The hands show strength and diligence in mixing the ingredients in preparation of nourishment for the body.nn Sometimes with traditions of value and significance, our greatest fear is watching our traditions and memories slowly fade away. My intentions are to reverently honor my grandmother and ignite the viewerÃÆ'ââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s memories of a family recipe and/or how a loved one who may have used a family recipe to continue the tradition.
